Spring is in full swing in the South End – wander over and see for yourself at this year’s Spring Stroll on Wednesday, May 8th. Make the most of the warmer weather and head over to the stylish and historic neighborhood between 4:00 and 8:00pm to shop, sip and snack your way through some fabulous local businesses and restaurants.

More than 50+ participants will be offering little bonuses (like beverages and discounts) and hosting mini pop-ups (with friends and featured makers), so it’s a great time to pick up some unique gifts (for Mother’s Day or graduation season or Father’s Day, if you’re planning ahead) at spots like Sky Candle Co., Polka Dog, Gifted or Urban Grape. Once you’ve shopped to your heart’s content you can pop into area restaurants like Burro Bar, Marseille, Myers + Chang, South End Buttery or Yellow Door Taqueria for themed menus, specialty cocktails and promotions (just be sure to mention the stroll).

Peruse all the fun places to go on the South End Business Alliance website (there’s even a handy map) and get ready to get reacquainted with the 02118.
